We’ll Cast On using two strands. (Note for beginners-This is how you put the yarn on at first to get started)
Cast On Method – Twisted Knit Stitch
Main Stitch Method/Pattern – Twisted Knit Stitch
WHAT YARN IS USED:
2 strands of #3 or 4 yarn in two different colors.
(Just a standard crafting acrylic yarn. You can use wool, cotton or acrylic. This is just what I used.)
DIFFICULTY LEVEL:
Beginner – This video I go a bit slow. if you are new to loom knitting this is a great video for you.
IDEAS FOR THIS STITCH:
This stitch is great for scarves, lovey, blankets, placemats, pot holders (in cotton!) and a number of other projects you can build from panels.
Please come back and tell me what you made from this stitch. I’d love to hear from YOU!
Have fun everyone, Happy Looming!!

Love your videos. Pictures of the finished products, so the full effect of the different stitches would be most helpful. Do you have those somewhere?
